Hotelhinweis

Wearing a wristband is necessary to take advantage of the All-Inclusive services. During dinner, sportswear, swimwear, beach shoes, and similar items are not allowed in the restaurants. In case of low hotel occupancy, there may be restrictions on restaurant opening hours (main restaurant excluded) in exceptional cases.

Zusatzhinweis

In the Dominican Republic, sinks or even bathtubs/whirlpools can be integrated openly into the general living area of the hotel room without a spatial partition.

Seasonal information

For stays between April and December, there may be an increased occurrence of seagrass and algae due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, an increased appearance of brown algae is frequently recorded in the Caribbean during this time. This can affect the beach and the sea. The hotel management and local authorities naturally strive to clean affected beach sections in cooperation with municipal administrations. However, the use of appropriate equipment is necessary for this, which causes a slight level of noise.
